4:05pm ET - Following the Supreme
Court’s decision in Citizens United v.Federal Elections Commission, the influx of money from big donors began to
flood our election process, spreading the influence and power of a wealthy few
over the rest of America. As a result, Lawrence Lessig, a professor at Harvard Law School with ties to Silicon Valley and Mark McKinnon, a former adviser to
President George W. Bush founded the Mayday “super PAC” which recently began a
$12 million advertising campaign to help elect lawmakers of both parties who
support proposals to diminish the influence of big donors. Joining us to
discuss the issue of big money in politics and why he felt it necessary to
combat this influx of money with more money is Lawrence Lessig. You can also follow Lawrence on twitter.
